Wow, things have been busy around here. We have spent the last month redesigning, manufacturing, assembling, and shipping a large heat rehab trailer order for Fort Benning Army Base the home of the United States Army Maneuver Center of Excellence.
A Cloud of Mist on the Horizon
You’ve spent months preparing your body for this trek, and the halfway mark was a few steps ago. Fans are cheering for you to keep going. Upon nearing the finish line, you see the most beautiful, amazing sight – a cloud of refreshing, cooling mist. What a perfect way to finish the race!
Whether you are a participant or an event coordinator, did you know there are 20 tentative marathons from mid-April to early June in California alone? One website records up to 185 marathons nationwide during that same period [1]! As the weather warms up, these marathons can be dangerous to participants and onlookers. Renting commercial misting equipment for the finish line can provide adequate relief for everyone involved.
Misting Away Hot Weather
The weather here in Southern California is starting to warm up, possibly in the 90’s this weekend. The first hints of our brutal summers get our seasonal population thinking about heading north, back to cooler temperatures. That also gets many of the Homeowners Associations & Facilities Managers thinking about all the renovations and improvements they plan to make during the “off” season when the occupancy rates are lower.
For us this means LOTS of bids to do for misting. Misting Systems are such an easy way to make your outdoor spaces more pleasant during warmer weather. There is little to no disturbance to your existing structures, plus you get a tremendous bang for your buck!

The Dangers of Overheating
Since summer is fast approaching for parts of the country, Advanced Misting Systems is discussing overheating because we consider it a life-threatening situation. Join us as we explore its symptoms and effects.
Most of the country is going to start seeing a warming trend, especially in the Southwest and South in the coming months. These states generally see temperatures in the high 90s and well into the 100s. Some areas compound these hot temperatures with high humidity too. The human body’s normal functioning temperature is 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit. If you are exposed to these weather conditions, your body struggles with the suppressed oxygen levels of high humidity and the attempts to cool down from the increased temperature exposure.
Using Mist for Dust and Odor Suppression
Recycling plants, wood working plants, sewage treatment plants, agricultural plants, and many others all have one main problem in common. Dust and/or Odor!
In some counties, it is required by law to have some sort of System in place to fight against or suppress the dust and/or odor. We at Advanced Misting Systems have been treating these problems for over 20 years.
When dust and odor become airborne it is hard to control where it goes and how long it will linger around. By the use of High Pressure Misting systems, Advanced Systems can capture the particles with moisture, which stops the odor and drops it to the ground, thus fixing the problem.
How to Make the Most of Your Outdoor Space in the Winter
It may be winter, but here in Southern California and throughout most of the American Southwest, we can still throw quite a holiday party outdoors. Here are some great holiday party tips from Advanced Misting Systems and GasOutdoorPatioHeaters.com to keep your guests warm, comfortable and cozy during your next winter outdoor gathering.
Make your pool look awesome!

GSA Contract!
After a lot of time, energy, and hard work we are so happy to announce that we have been awarded a GSA Contract!
If you are unfamiliar with what that is the General Services Administration or GSA “assists with procurement work for other government agencies. Procurement managers from government agencies can view these agreements and make purchases from the GSA Schedule knowing that all legal obligations have been taken care of by GSA.”
How an Evaporative Cooler Works
We talk a lot about the merits of an evaporative cooler over a standard air conditioner in terms of cost of installation, maintenance and operation, but it seems that not very many people understand how an evaporative cooler works. Also known as swamp coolers, evaporative coolers provide effective cooling by capitalizing on the natural process of water evaporation combined with a simple air-moving system. Keeping the interior of our desert buildings cool is a process that modern technology has made simple. But in the early 20th century, inventions such as air conditioning did not yet exist. People often stayed cool by sleeping outside on screened in porches during the summer. They would hang soaking-wet bedsheets and blankets on the screens and use fans to pull the night air through the moist cloth to provide a cool breeze to lower the room’s temperature.
